Review

From the reviews:

"The book summarizes the author’s research on efficiency theory. It emphasizes new approaches to efficiency theory emerging since the proposition of data development analysis. The text focuses on extensions of nonparametric efficiency measurement models in the following areas: cost oriented DEA models; consideration of interdependence of firms; informational basis of input-output and cost data; role of uncertainty and risk. ... The book is concisely written and of interest for readers with a background in economic theory and DEA." (Matthias Ehrgott, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1048, 2004)
